Summary - Holbrook Road, Alvaston DE24 0DB
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Chain-free three-bedroom semi with garden and driveway — ideal for renovation-minded buyers.
No upward chain — freehold three-bed semi-detached
A chain-free, freehold three-bedroom semi-detached on Holbrook Road offering clear scope for value-adding refurbishment. The property is compact (about 396 sq ft) but comes with a driveway, good-sized rear garden and a brick-built store — practical outdoor space rare at this price point. A recently replaced roof and double glazing (install date unknown) reduce some immediate exterior costs.
Internally the layout is traditional: entrance hall, open-plan lounge/diner, downstairs WC, small kitchen, and three first-floor bedrooms served by a single family bathroom. The house requires full modernisation throughout — cosmetic updating, kitchen and bathroom replacement and possible heating or electrics checks are likely — which presents a renovation opportunity for a buyer prepared to invest time and money.
Local conveniences include nearby bus routes, shops, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, which supports use as a family home or a buy-to-let for families. Be realistic about the location: the wider area shows high deprivation indicators and above-average crime rates, so purchaser due diligence on neighbourhood suitability is advisable.
This property suits a first-time buyer or budget-conscious investor looking for a low-entry freehold with clear refurbishment potential. The combination of no upward chain, off-street parking, garden and proximity to amenities creates a practical project for the right buyer.
